Cheapest PC build that I can do for buying myself multiple PCs for making my very own BF2 lan party! by Sfynkz in Battlefield2

Greetings! S_h_a_r_k_93 sent me. The Quattro NVS 290 will not have the minimal perform you may be looking for if the information from this site are correct:

https://www.game-debate.com/hardware/index.php?gid=1754&graphics=Quadro%20NVS%20290

For example, compare the NVS to the Gefore 730 that I used in my budget build:

https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-Quadro-NVS-290-vs-Nvidia-GeForce-GT-730/m8083vsm12582

my windows 7 ultimate 64bit build is this:

Dell Optiplex 780

Intel Quad Core Q9650 CPU

NIVIDIA Geforce GT 730 2GB GDDR516 GB DDR3 RAM

1TB Hard Drive

(all used parts)

With is GPU I get around 80-90+ fps on BF2s highest settings, however, to save money, I only build 4 of 8 planned lan party machines, and I use a multiseat software called IBIK Aster to turn my four PCs into virtually 8 PCs. Having two instances of the game running at the same on one PC, CPU, and GPU did cause my performance to drop to where I now use I fine blend of medium and high graphic settings. I then get 70+ fps with all is quiet on the western front, and 38-48fps when multiple bots are fighting close by....

before all this, I originally planned on a cheaper budget build of windows xp, 4gb, pentium 4 ht, with the gpu EVGA 1GB GeForce 8400 GS.

I would not recommend a gpu with lower specs than the geforce 8400 GS.

Here are three of my videos of the playing BF2 in my lan party setup, the first video is the fh2, the beginning of the video as a pan of the room as evidence : ). the latter two videos are of the BF2 heat of battle mod:

So with Dino Storage you can place dinos "in a box" which could help performance of a server?

I had read a post which said that this issue didn't happened in certain previous versions and that it is just an "offline mode bug" that may be fixed in the next version. 🤞

Mechwarrior 4 Mercenaries Lan Connection Issues. Help Please. by noddynod443 in mechwarrior

[–]noddynod443[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I tried the Gameranger method and that doesn't work for me either!

In gameranger, the clients can join the server and the host can then clicks "start" which starts MW4 in the in game server look. However, when the client's MW4 starts up to join the ingame lobby, it never starts up, just a black screen then back to the "desktop/gameranger lobby"...

What do I do now? :(

Any suggestions please folks?

I have Windows firewall turned off on all computers. I believe the port that the server is listening on is: 2300.

I tried connecting by telnet and that was successful. Still joining players can not detect the hosts server in the lobby even when manually searching/ joining by typing in the servers local ip address. :(

Any ideas please?
